Hi,

in my Company someone asked me if it would be possible to set Testparameters in Jenkins at the startup of the test, for example an ip-address of a Testdevice. In the Testsuite we already use a parameter for that but if its possible they would only use Jenkins to edit specific parameters and start the test. We also use Jenkins with Jubula at the moment but we only start tests and get the result. I didn't no if theres a way to handle test parameters in jenkins.

So i thought i ask you if its possible? Maybe you can help me.

Best Regards
Dominik

This is possible using environment variables.
If you define parameters in your jenkins Job, it will be an environement variable for the whole job and also for jubula.
The names TEST_UDV_XXX are not really user friendly so what you can do is define the "Testdevice" parameter in your jenkins job and then in your ant when you call testexec (most likely with a "exec" ant command) you can do :
<env key="TEST_UDV_TESTDEVICE" value="${env.Testdevice}"/>
